When I looked up there were all these people staring at me. I told them I was alright. One person said, *We just wanted to see if you cursed.* All I said was *dang!* and gritted my teeth.
A month after that there was a discussion in the break room about religion. I was not present. One person said that Mormons were not Christians. Antoher replied that *Floyd is a Mormon and he's the best Christian I've seen.*
They're watching you and judging the Church by what they see you do.I tripped and stubbed my toe at work. When I looked up there were all these people staring at me. I told them I was alright. One person said, *We just wanted to see if you cursed.* All I said was *dang!* and gritted my teeth.

Now that I know that there are crowds waiting with bated breath for my every contribution, maybe I'll write more often. Probably not, though. I'm a total blog slacker lately, which corresponds with being a non-slacker in other aspects of my life. When I begin to blog diligently, you'll know that I'm being a slacker in my school work.Hey sis,

I've heard this argument, and I think that it is sometimes true. On the other hand, sometimes, it demonstrates just the opposite: an awareness of the inadequacy of other vocabulary.“Anyway, doesn’t cussing just show a lack of vocabulary?”

My family finds it humorous if I swear and usually I don't even realize that I said something bad. Once in a while I say something knowingly, but it never feels rewarding. Thanks for this blog. It is important to go beyond the example we should be to why we should be a good example. Thanks for the blog. I've lurked around to read your posts; it has been a while since you posted.I don’t swear much. My family finds it humorous if I swear and usually I don’t even realize that I said something bad.

Hinckley's council about not getting angry so relevant. The only times I lose control of my tongue is when I lose control of myself and it drives me crazy that I don't have always have control of myself because it's always regrettable. Strangely enough, about the only times this happens is when I'm driving with poor directions by myself and when I play video games.
